  • OSHA Ladder Safety
    LADDER SAFETY INTRODUCTION Ladders are a necessary tool and every day millions of people use ladders at work and do so safely and without incident. But using a ladder requires a worker to be at height. A fall from what might seem to a short distance can be very serious and falls from ladders are one of the leading causes of occupational fatalities and injuries. Many ladders falls are preventable as the great majority of them are caused by improper use. A ladder is a simple tool and the number of ladder-related accidents could be significantly reduced if workers conscientiously followed the basics of ladder safety. To use ladders safely and effectively, one must know the rules of ladder safety and observe these rules at all times. Knowing how to properly and safely use ladders is of key importance in the workplace. Employers are required to train employees in the use of equipment such as ladders that have the potential to cause harm. However, it is the responsibility of the employee to retain and use this safety information. OSHA AND LADDER SAFETY The Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) is part of the US Department of Labor. OSHA establishes standards for workplace safety and establishes recommendations and requirements for the proper use of equipment. OSHA also requires employers to train employees in the proper and safe use of equipment. Regarding ladders, OSHA states that: “Employers must train all employees to recognize hazards related to ladders and stairways, and instruct them to minimize these hazards. Employers must retrain each cnaZone.com cnaZone.com cnaZone.com cnaZone.com cnaZone.com cnaZone.com 1 employee as necessary to maintain their understanding and knowledge on the safe use and construction of ladders and stairs.

  • Factsheet Series Is Funded in Part by a Grant from the USDA Forest Service
    CARING FOR NEW TREES Newly planted trees need care, especially in the first two to three years after planting Watering New trees need lots of water. Watering with a garden hose at low volume or utilizing a soaker hose is ideal since it allows water to slowly infiltrate the soil. Less frequent, but thorough watering is more beneficial to root development than frequent shallow watering. Tree roots need oxygen. Over-watering is just as problematic as under-watering. Test the soil moisture by using a trowel to dig two inches into the soil. Use your fingers to feel the soil in the small trench you created. If it is dry, it is time to water. You can use a hose at the base of the tree, with water on low or purchase watering bags that you fill for a slow soaking. It is hard to say exactly how much to water your tree, but 15 gallons once per week is a good starting place for trees that are approximately 1.5 Slow watering with a hose inches in caliper. If your tree is larger than that, or if the weather is hot and dry, increase the amount of water or water twice a week. Water your tree for the first two years after planting. Begin watering when the ground thaws and until the ground freezes. What about lawn sprinklers and rainfall? Lawn sprinklers do not provide the deep watering that trees need.

SIMMONS, logging specialist NORTHEASTERN FOREST EXPERIMENT STATION FOREST SERVICE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE - - - WASHINGTON, D. C, 1951 For sale by the Superintendent of Documents, Washington, D. C. Price 75 cents Preface THOSE who want to be successful in any line of work or business must learn the tricks of the trade one way or another. For most occupations there is a wealth of published information that explains how the job can best be done without taking too many knocks in the hard school of experience. For logging, however, there has been no ade- quate source of information that could be understood and used by the man who actually does the work in the woods. This NORTHEASTERN LOGGERS' HANDBOOK brings to- gether what the young or inexperienced woodsman needs to know about the care and use of logging tools and about the best of the old and new devices and techniques for logging under the conditions existing in the northeastern part of the United States. Emphasis has been given to the matter of workers' safety because the accident rate in logging is much higher than it should be. Sections of the handbook have previously been circulated in a pre- liminary edition. Scores of suggestions have been made to the author by logging operators, equipment manufacturers, and professional forest- ers.
